Talkovskaya Elena Biography
Culture Elena Talkovskaya: “We live in the days of musical fast food” a concert dedicated to the summer of the Moscow Cultural and Leisure Center will be held on October 20. It will be a singer, poet and composer, laureate and winner of Russian music competitions Elena Talkovskaya. In an interview with the Petersburg Diary, she talked about her work and a new project - Elena, tell us what program you prepared for the concert?
Will there be new songs? This does not happen for one simple reason: there are songs that the public loves and wants to hear. I think it’s just a sin to deprive people of the opportunity to hear the compositions that they love again! Of course, new songs will appear, but I would say that it will be “dosed”. I really love the work of Sasha Dolsky and was at his concert many years ago.
Then in the first branch he sang new songs, and in the second he performed old compositions with the words: "For the fact that you have so good and have accepted my new songs so well, I will perform the old ones for you." You can’t do anything: listeners love recognizable, and as a performer, it is very pleasant when the hall recognizes the song. By the way, at a concert in Moskovsky there will be a very good new song, it seems to me, this is a real anthem of the Paralympics.
It was written for a long time, but now it has gained a new fresh sound. For a long time, I have been working with pleasure with the team of Evgenia Zaritskaya Samantha. It contains absolutely wonderful children who sing and dance. I will be very glad to go on stage with the guys in several joint numbers, including with a number that will open a concert program. It will be very beautiful, spectacular, modern and youth.
There are such songs that are closer to the chanson genre, a more commercial plan that Anton and I have already done, and the album was very good. But there are songs of a completely different plan. Since childhood, I have been a reading girl, and the texts of songs for me are not just texts, these are poems. About this is our project. Now in the musical space there are songs that do not understand how, why, why and for whom were written ...
The difficult time of musical fast food has come - everyone wants it simpler, but this is not our story. So, I have a song written for a long time, the song is very serious, a song is a present. And somehow I met Petya Zakharov-the winner of the television show “Voice” at the concert-forth of our common friend, and something clicked on me. I said: "Petya, there is a good song." Yes, Petya defeated his voice, but remained the same cute, intelligent man without show -offs and star disease.
He was so delighted: “Lena, come on, send it! And somehow it all grew into a single project, and Anton also saw in this a very good perspective, because it was the genre of the crossover, which is now everywhere. This combination of classical vocals and modern stylish music can be towards rock, such a good pop. Something like what Igor Krutoy does with Anna Netrebko.
By the way, I have a classic musical education, although I sing in a non -classical voice and in general I can sing in any voice.
The chip of this project is that Petin Baritone is combined with my rather modern vocal, and the song is so real, high -quality, with beautiful verses. As we started in October, so it went with us, every month in the concert. In general, it was all good and effective. Yes, these were incomplete halls due to restrictions, but I already had a dense layer of listeners who always go to concerts and are very happy about performances.
There are such wonderful verses: "Do not let your soul be lazy." Now there is an Internet, my songs can be found, on Utuba - a huge number of videos from concerts. There are notes of whole concerts. Nevertheless, people come to concerts, spend money on a ticket, flowers to the artist, arrange a holiday not only for themselves, but also to me! I am waiting for listeners at my concerts - this is always a sea of love.
I love all my listeners. I always have very warm and sincere, because I do not invent anything, the same as it is: with my crazy love, joy. It is worth coming to warm up in our difficult and rather cold time. When I come there, I am leaving the bustle of the city, I have a very good written to me. I really like to write on the road when I am alone. All the roads of St.
Petersburg are my office, I am writing there. Of modern poets - there is such a wonderful woman Julia Vikhareva. She is fantastic, our modern genius. Robert Rozhdestvensky, poems by Joseph Brodsky. Yes Pushkin I love like all normal Russian people! There is such a legend that along the line of my grandmother we come from the Derzhavins family ... I have a very poetic family and creative.
I love Kolomna very much, I just adore places around the St. Nicholas Cathedral. Banally, but madly love the center, because I grew up there - these are all my native places. I really like to ride a boat, Petersburg from the water is happiness! There will be many diverse musical and very interesting premieres.There will be a full -fledged concert premiere of the duet Peter Zakharov, a famous singer and winner of the television project “Voice” and Elena Talkovskaya.
Lena is the soul and locomotive of the project. The city was bolding in musical premieres and such beautiful things. The concert will open a very interesting work, which, perhaps, will become an informal anthem with disabilities - the song is called "fall - rise." It is made in youth format and will be performed along with the theater of children's song Evgenia Zaritskaya. Very bright dance-vocal show.
And finally, those hits of Lena that she wrote and I produced in the over the past year and a half will sound in a full -fledged concert version. This is what sounds on the radio and what the audience awaits - “everything will be great”, “I want”, “Come with me”. Bright, famous, positive and "delicious" songs! I think the concert will turn out to be very good and long -awaited.
